Survey reveals workplace productivity can create 90,000 jobs

A new study has shown that almost 90,000 new jobs could be created in a year, through improvements in workplace productivity and innovation.

Research by the Great Place to Work Institute revealed that some businesses in Ireland actually increased their workforce last year.

The Institute surveyed more than 34,000 employees in 120 business organisations and have found which companies have the best workplaces in Ireland.

Microsoft comes out on top as the best large workplace, while Euro Car Parks has been named the best SME workplace.
